“Officer, you said that Xing Shu is the kidnapper’s next target. But what connection does she have with my cousin, Liu Chun? If the kidnappers want to kidnap a rich lady, they won’t target Xing Shu. Everyone knows that Xing Shu has a grudge against my cousin, Liu Chun. Liu Chun disappeared at the Xing family’s banquet, and Xing Shu stole the limelight at the Xing family’s banquet yesterday.” Liu Xiangru threatened in an arrogant tone. “So, I think Xing Shu is the most likely person to kidnap Liu Chun. If you don’t arrest Xing Shu, I’ll file charges and get the court to subpoena Xing Shu.”

The police officer was stunned by Liu Xiangru’s words. He did not expect the Liu family to be so unreasonable. Xing Shu gestured for the police officer to pass her the phone and said, “Miss Liu Xiangru, if I receive a court summons, I will definitely sign my name neatly. I hope you can keep your word.”

Liu Xiangru did not expect Xing Shu to be there and hear her words. She was embarrassed. Her tone turned cold. “Xing Shu, who do you think you are talking to?” Liu Xiangru’s status in the Beijing upper-class circle was very high. Otherwise, Jiang Yao would not have persuaded Xing Shu not to cross her. Liu Xiangru had a very loyal dog—Nie Heng. All Liu Xiangru had to do was shed a tear and Nie Heng would do anything for her. Therefore, Liu Xiangru had always been very self-entitled. Liu Xiangru was stunned by Xing Shu’s rude words. Before she could think of a way to threaten Xing Shu, Xing Shu hung up.

Liu Xiangru coughed heavily in anger and gritted her teeth as she looked at her cell phone. Liu Chun was right. Xing Shu was an annoying woman!

After Xing Shu hung up, she looked up at the police. “I’m sorry, I accidentally hung up. I’ve already finished giving my statement. Can I leave now? The police should arrange for someone to protect me, right?”

The police officer nodded. “Don’t worry. My colleagues will be stationed around the apartment. If there are any suspicious characters, they will be caught immediately.

Xing Shu heaved a sigh of relief. She felt that she should call the office and let them know. She was supposed to leave for a business trip today, but she ended up at the police station. As long as the issue of the kidnappers was not resolved, her personal safety would not be guaranteed. The business trip could only be postponed.

After some thought, Xing Shu sent a message to Cheng Lang, saying that she had something on at the last minute and had to postpone her business trip. Cheng Lang did not reply, and Xing Shu did not wait either. On the way back to the apartment in the police car, she saw a news flash—it seemed to be about the marriage between the Cheng and Jin families. The accompanying photograph was one of Cheng Lang waiting at the airport and talking to Old Master Jin.

The Cheng family was the most eminent family in the capital, and every move they made was the focus of the media. Moreover, it involved a marriage alliance with the Jin family. Everyone said that Cheng Lang and Jin Yue were a perfect match.

Xing Shu’s mouth felt a little bitter. No wonder he did not reply to her message—he was picking up Old Master Jin at the airport. She hurriedly closed her eyes.

The police officer said, “Miss Xing Shu, we’ve arrived at your apartment.”

Xing Shu hurriedly got out of the car. After thanking the police officers, she walked into the apartment in a daze. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw cigarette butts all over the floor in front of her unit. There was also a man sitting at the door—Cheng Xingyang. She immediately felt annoyed. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol filled the corridor, making her stomach churn.

When Cheng Xingyang heard the sound, he raised his bloodshot eyes and stood up with the help of the wall. He looked at Xing Shu. “I went to the charity organization to investigate. All these years, you’ve been the one donating money to the welfare home.” He burped and his eyes were hazy. “Linlin’s mental state isn’t right now. I wanted to marry her immediately, but my mother objected. She asked me to persuade you. Xing Shu, is it still possible between the two of us?

Xing Shu felt that Cheng Xingyang’s brain might be damaged. She opened the door of the apartment. “Go to the hospital and check your brain first.” She closed the door. However, Cheng Xingyang reached in and the door slammed against the back of his hand. Cheng Xingyang frowned in pain, but he did not retract his hand.

Xing Shu looked on with a headache and had to open the door. “Cheng Xingyang, what are you trying to do? Our engagement has been annulled. I don’t have time to play house with you anymore.”

Cheng Xingyang’s eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed Xing Shu l s hand. He did not know what he was doing and thought that he was dreaming. In his dream, Xing Shu was so heartless. He could not help but enter and grab Xing Shu l s shoulder, pushing her against the wall..
